Holly and Brandon just got married at the incredible Cedarhurst Mansion in Cottage Grove. The rain challenged us to get creative indoors. Thankfully, it cleared up and we were treated to a perfect evening.

Holly’s first look at her beautiful dress.



Is this ballroom beautiful or what? More pictures in here coming up…



Holly and Brandon get some time to themselves to let it all sink in.


She looks so regal.


I like to try some old fashioned formal portraits once in a while. This mansion definitely called for an image like this.



Holly’s sister painted this sign for them. They aren’t about to let a little rain get in the way of taking pictures!


The Cedarhurst Mansion has a beautiful little garden off the back. I’m glad the rain let up enough to shoot here.


A spontaneous dip!


I can’t quite put my finger on why, but this is my favorite image from the day. It feels so real and unguarded.



Fun. Again, spontaneous. You can’t fake these expressions.


A charming toast by Holly’s brother.


What a pretty place for a dance. I’m very happy with these dancing pictures. My light was hitting them just right.



A walk around the grounds at dusk. A very romantic moment with the fog rolling in.


Thank you, Holly and Brandon. It was an honor to photograph your wedding.

I took a road trip to Iowa to photograph the wedding of an amazing couple, Laura and Troy. The wedding took place in the very small town of Hospers and had all the charm of a small-town wedding.

Laura and Troy found a beautiful grove of trees that served as a perfect setting for some pre-wedding portraits. I love the powerful look that Laura gives here.



Troy eventually did bring Laura back. :)




A beautiful bride by a beautiful window.


Love this real moment.


Laura’s mirror was a wedding-day gift from Troy.



The couple was covered by dried flower petals. And so was I in order to get this shot.


I love these real emotions.



A proud moment for Laura’s father.


Time to celebrate!

Eric, you really have a gift for what you do. Everytime I look at a set of pictures you take I am blow away at how well you capture the moment. It seems as though you catch everything just as it was meant to be, you give people something they can cherish everyday and forever thats just so natural and beautiful. I hope you never stop doing what makes you happy, because what makes you happy makes the people you are shooting for very happy:)

On Friday I had the good fortune to photograph the wedding of Garth and Janae. The wedding was held in a beautiful mansion in Canton, SD. It was a very intimate ceremony - there were fewer than 30 guests.




Yes, Janae looked this happy all day. Lots of laughing with the maid of honor.



The first look was an incredibly powerful moment.





I absolutely love this duo: the serious and joyful expressions.



Beautiful bouquet and veil catching the breeze.







This mansion was a dream to photograph.



Garth's vows provided a few lighthearted moments.





Then the limo broke down and we had to walk to the reception... kidding.



Smiles from the grandparents.

John Reilly:

Masterful work. The tone and feeling is really amazing. There's a character and personality in these photographs that all too often goes missing from run-of-the-mill wedding snapshots. What a beautiful way to preserve the memory of their day.

Eric, The photos made me cry, you see, Janae is my dear niece and I was unable to be in SD. Thank you for the incredible way you captured the love between these two amazing individuals. The house made a beautiful setting for the celebration. The outside shots are equally breath taking. I am very thankful you were the photographer! Peace, Aunt Chris

Garth and Janae have been my friends for many years and they have such a special bond. You capture that in these photos. They are absolutely beautiful and are totally what Garth and Janae deserve to remember their day.
